- This example illustrates the use of thickening polyurethanes according to the invention in a fabric softening composition comprising a cationic esterquat agent. All raw materials are commercially available. Process for the preparation of the fabric softening composition
- Stepquartx TM VT90 cationic ester (90%) from Stepan were melted at 60 ° C.
- demineralized water 944.4 g of demineralized water are heated to 70 ° C. The water is stirred and the cationic agent is poured into the hot water. The mixture is allowed to cool to 30 ° C with continuous stirring.
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- R is a C20: 0 chain, branched to 20 carbon atoms
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- R is a linear C12: 0 chain with 12 carbon atoms
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- R is a Cl chain 8: 1, linear to 18 carbon atoms having unsaturation,
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- R is a Cl chain 8: 1, linear to 18 carbon atoms having unsaturation,
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- R is a Cl chain 8: 1, linear to 18 carbon atoms having unsaturation,
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
- the exemplified polyurethane results from the condensation of two different alcohols of formula (I). More specifically, said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- R is a linear C12: 0 chain with 12 carbon atoms
- R is a C32: 0 chain, branched to 32 carbon atoms
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
- the thickening polyurethanes according to the invention allow a stable thickening at 7 days and at 14 days: the ratio ⁇ 2 / ⁇ () is greater than 50% for all the tests carried out with a thickening polyurethane meeting the criteria of the present invention, which is not the case for the thickeners outside the invention.
- Example 2 This example illustrates the use of a thickening polyurethane according to the invention in a fabric softening composition, comprising a cationic agent of quat type. All raw materials are commercially available.
- demineralized water 950 g are heated to 70 ° C. The water is stirred and the cationic agent is poured into the hot water. The mixture is allowed to cool to 30 ° C with continuous stirring.
- Said polyurethane results from the condensation of, expressed in% by weight relative to the total weight of the polyurethane:
- IPDI isophorone diisocyanate
